Sorry, who is 'we'?
Sorry, just remembered, Geordies...

No worries on that front I'm afraid...:whistle:

Geordies haven't won at the Bridge in a league match since 1986.
And we do seem to be one of your bogie teams.

Mark Hughes, a glamour manager? Glamour signings in the shape of Joey Barton? Don't think so. Our signings were made of desperation, given the time we had left after Ecclestone and Briatore left the club to Fernandes. Nothing glamour about it at all, less still the last 10 years at Loftus Road.

I do believe you may be confusing us with Man City or Chelsea perhaps.

You are a piddly PL club. Mark Hughes and his uber agent thought he was too big for Fulham, an established piddly PL club. ^_^ What desperation? You'd been promoted to the PL and all it's money, you were in a "successful" QPR phase. You are paying Joey 80k a week and he doesn't even make "glamour", you've been had! You've gone about PL survival in entirely the wrong way just like my club did, that led to a 11 year linear decline that hasn't bottomed out yet.

You sound like a Leeds fan, which may explain your attitude problem..?

Your assessment of the QPR is entirely wrong, Barton is a prick granted, but if you think we've had anything but a year on year decline before last season, then you know nothing about my club, so get yourself more of a clue before you start harping nonsense.

It was you that mentioned 'glamour', your use of word, not mine.

For two crap teams ( and I support Liverpool ) it was a very entertaining game tonight.. a comedy of errors
Hope we pull ourselves together for the bitters this weekend

Be nice if Liverpool won their semi-final.
Who will play in net I wonder. Reina's still serving his ban (I think) and their 2nd keeper Doni (?) got sent off today.

On the plus side...the football leagues highest goal-scoring team, The Blades, won again tonight. C'mon you red and white wizards!

I was in the north stand right behind the goal...readings free kick goal was ace even if they are the enemy....then we missed the penalty ...i was so close i could have reached out an given him a smack...ref was a joke...but a good game i thought:becool:

Was at Ewok last night and couldn't believe the team Dalglish picked! OK, he might have said to the journeymen 'get out there and play your way into the semi-final' but when our best player wasn't even on the bench, it said a lot about his priorities this season. To say t'rurvurs are a disgrace to the league is perhaps an understatement and any team who loses to them deserves the ignominy headed in their direction and when even a ten-man team of strangers beat you, it's goodnight Vienna.

Be interesting to see who Liverpool pick as the reserve keeper for Saturday. Jones has to be in goal but we don't have another keeper on the books. I would expect the bitters to batter him in the hope they get him sent off. After all, they know no other way to go about getting a win.

Paul Lambert for Manager of the Season ?

Should be really - although if Newcastle get into the CL it will be Pardew, otherwise probably Fergie for a change.

Lambert has always instilled the "team spirit" to which richP refers.

He's done it since taking over when we were practically bottom of League 1.

It's amazing the way he buys players in from the lower leagues and they suddenly seem like world beaters. The latest are Howson and Bennet from Leeds and Peterborough we bought in March.

Both good in the Championship - already looking a million dollars in the Premier

Or look at John Ruddy - probably the best English qualified keeper around after Joe Hart - he was on Everton's books when we signed him but had been loaned out like mad - they obviously didn't rate him and couldn't offload him.

He played for 10 teams, mainly on loan, before joining Norwich and he's only 25!

Since joining Norwich he's been nothing short of brilliant for 2 seasons.

I believe there are only 4 keepers in the Prem who are English qualified and Paul Robinson and Ben Foster have retired from International football. So we have 2 Premiership English keepers. Both young and talented, but Ruddy seems nowhere near the squad??

If 'Arry takes over he may put him in seeing his amazing save against them the other day though.

I don't have an attitude problem nor am I a Leeds fan.I said that QPR are a piddly PL club and were in a successful QPR phase when you sacked your manager, I stand by that. BTW you know zippo about year on year decline compared to me. :smile:
